First-Class Lounge, Naathyr International Airport, Sakura City.
This was arguably the biggest and most advanced airport in the entire world.
Every day it received flights from countless countries. The airport was so big that it seemed like a city where thousands upon thousands of passengers arrived and departed every day.
In a year, millions of passengers passed through this airport. And even though the New Year was a holiday where most people stayed at home, the airport was still filled with people that New Year's Day morning.
By that, we can see how modern and fancy this airport was. And the First-Class Lounge was something from another world. The lounge itself was enormous with a myriad of services to the first-class passengers.
There were luxurious brands shops, fancy restaurants and bars, places comfortable to sleep and rest, and many other amenities.
11:20 AM.
At that time, three beautiful girls had just entered the lounge after dispatching their luggage.
Each one of them had a distinct hair color and features, but everywhere they passed, people would whisper among themselves and admire the girls.
"Who are they?"
"I don't know, but I know that I'm in love."
"They are so beautiful, they look like supermodels."
"Maybe they are supermodels."
"Why don't you ask for an autograph."
"I'm shy."
"..."
Everywhere the three girls passed, people would say something like that.
These three girls were Ayia, Shizuka, and Kaori.
"Wow!" Ayia exclaimed in wonder as she saw how amazing the First-Class Lounge was.
"We've always traveled in our private jets, I didn't know there was such a place here." Ayia added.
"Unfortunately, we won't have time to enjoy the place. It says here that the plane will arrive in 10 minutes. And we will have to board soon after." Shizuka commented as she observed her boarding pass.
"Yeah, let's head toward our gate then." Kaori agreed as she started walking.
Ayia was bummed that she wouldn't be able to explore the place, but she knew that she couldn't miss their flight as everyone was already on that plane.
Just like that, the three stunning girls walked toward their gate. Soon after, they arrived at a gate that said:
[Aiwenor Airlines Flight 131A - Emel, Kokoro Islands]
[Estimated Boarding Time: 11:40 AM]
"It must be here." Shizuka said as she checked on her boarding pass to see if it was this flight indeed.
"The plane must be almost here." Ayia commented when she saw that it was 11:30 AM already.
"I can't wait to meet your new friends." Kaori said with a teasing smile.
When Ayia saw that smile, she knew that her big sister had something on her mind, "Nee-chan! You promised to be good to them."
"Okay, okay. You talk as if I'm someone who scares your friends away." Kaori replied with a fake hurt expression.
"Because you already did that." Ayia rolled her eyes.
"But I had a good reason at that time." Kaori defended herself.
"Yes, you did and I agreed with you at that time. But this time, these people really mean a lot to me. So, please, promise to treat them nicely." Ayia asked with puppy eyes.
Kaori could only sigh in defeat and say, "Okay, I'll treat them nicely and won't scare them away."
"Thank you, nee-chan! You're the best!" Ayia smiled sweetly at her.
Kaori could only smile and shake her head off.
Her only wish was to protect her two little sisters, and she could take extreme measures to do so.
For example, the situation that they just talked about happened when Ayia and Shizuka were in Middle School and Kaori was in High School.
Ayia always was sweet and smart, so it was normal for her to have many friends. At that time, she was just a little girl without knowing much. Basically, she was gullible.
Even though she received extensive education from her family about the ways of the world, she was still gullible.
That was until Kaori discovered the horrible things that the so-called Ayia's 'friends' talked about her behind her back.
As a protective big sister, Kaori was livid when she discovered how these friends spread false rumors about Ayia and Shizuka.
Without any hesitation, Kaori took an extreme method to teach them a lesson. She first exposed what these 'friends' talked about behind their backs to Ayia and Shizuka.
Shizuka was always calm and intelligent, she already had her suspicions, so she wasn't that surprised.
But Ayia was devasted, even though she hadn't changed her ways and stayed a bright and happy girl. She wasn't gullible anymore, she learned how to select her friendships better.
After Kaori exposed them to Ayia and Shizuka, she heartlessly humiliated these people and made them change schools.
Kaori didn't regret anything she did for her two little sisters, she would anything for them.
Until now, Kaori still was too overprotective about them. But this time she had to follow Ayia's request. Plus, her parents already knew some of them, so they can't be that bad, right?
Just like that, the three girls waited patiently until the plane landed and the boarding started.
"Boarding pass and passport, please?" The stewardess asked Ayia when the boarding started.
"Here." Ayia gave her what she asked.
After checking everything, the stewardess returned the boarding pass and passport back to Ayia and smiled, "Everything checks out. Have a safe flight, Mrs. Yamada. Thank you for choosing Aiwenor Airlines."
"Thank you." Ayia replied with a smile.
Shortly after, Kaori and Shizuka also passed through inspection and joined Ayia at the gate.
"Let's go!" Ayia exclaimed excitedly as she called her sisters to follow her.
Kaori and Shizuka giggled at her, but they still followed her into the gate.
Soon after, the three girls arrived at the aircraft door where two flight attendants were in front of it.
·?θm "Good morning!" The two flight attendants said with a professional smile.
"Good morning!" Ayia replied with a smile.
"Good morning." Kaori and Shizuka greeted them back with a smile.
The three girls entered the plane through the door and were immediately inside the First-Class Section of the plane.
They had just gotten in when they heard someone say, "I knew Ayia and Shizuka would enter now."
"You're so shameless. Everyone knew that they would enter sooner or later."
"Then why didn't you say so?"
"Because I'm not as shameless as you."
"..."
They all discussed between laughs, but after stopping for a moment Ayia and Shizuka laughed out loud at their bickering;
"Ayia-nee-san, you're here." Aurora said with a sweet voice.
It was only then that Ayia saw Aurora seated inside her cabin.
"Aurora-chan!" Ayia shouted and ran towards her.
Ayia attacked Aurora with a bear hug and everyone couldn't help but laugh again as they knew that Ayia liked to attack Aurora.
It was a pretty common scene for them.
But Kaori had a strange expression on her beautiful face, 'What was happening?', she thought.
